    Sloppy Joe
    Stephanie F.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE.!!! Food is soooo good. My boyfriend got the cubano, I got the sloppy Joe, my daughter got the chicken plate and I also bought a side of plantains. Everything was delicious, not ONE complaint. Definitely will be returning. The owner was so kind, you can tell the love also goes into the food.

    Cubano sandwich with seasoned fries!

    This Food Truck is FIRE! Great authentic Cuban food! I loved the Cubano Sandwhich with French fries! The fries were just like McDonald French fries. Light and crunchy! The man working in the truck was friendly and helpful as well! Highly recommend eating at this truck!

    I ate half I couldn't wait!!

    El Cubano Kitchen delivers incredible flavor and authenticity. The Cubano sandwich was outstanding--perfectly toasted bread, juicy pork, and a delicious balance of savory and tangy. Everything tasted fresh and made with care. It's one of the best sandwiches I've had, and I'd honestly eat it every day. Highly recommend!

    Top notch, authentic flavors and just dang good! Can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but I like the polo, ropa or the sloppy Joe!

    I've been going to Bella Cuba since I've lived in the OC the area for the past few years and…read morediscovered a love for their Cuban food. The high level and consistency of service and amazing food I had every time going to Bella Cuba is truly unique. Regardless if its just a simple lunch break, birthday dinner with friends, or anniversaries; I've spent a lot of time at this restaurant and have never had a bad time. So much so, that when it came time to figure out a caterer for my wedding Bella Cuba was my first phone call. Nick and his father Antonio were upfront with me about having never catered a wedding (we had 150 guests!) before even though they've catered other large events. I was convinced with their food and level of service that they would do an great job, and once the day came they did not disappoint. We got a little bit of everything: salad, garlic bread, beans, rice, garlic shrimp, pollo asado, and the oxtail! Nick coordinated with us every step of the way for months prior to our wedding. He even stayed for the whole wedding to make sure the food was served properly! One of the big takeaways from our wedding from all our guests and vendors was that they've never had better food at a wedding, and I think that's a testament to Nick and the whole staff's work ethic and attention to detail to their level of service and great quality of food and ingredients. My only wish is that my wife and I had more leftovers for ourselves, but the look on our guests faces when they got to take home the extra ox tail was worth it. Now, whenever my wife and I go back to the restaurant we're reminded about our fun wedding, and the food and service is always just as great. My wife highly recommends the oxtail. Being a vegan myself I always go with one of the vegetarian specials (They're vegan!) as I love the beans and yucca. I can't recommend this restaurant enough, 10 out of 10 for everything, you won't be disappointed!

    HOW THEY FIX MISTAKES AND MADE THINGS RIGHT…read more I eat here from time to time and the food is excellent as well as the customer service which is second to none. I ordered the garlic chicken to go. However, when I got to work I realized they accidently have me two boxes of rice and and beans. I gave them a call, told them about it, and it was no big deal. I totally understand the lunch rush and all the boxes look the same. We're all human. This isn't the zombie apocalypse. I'll survive . That being said it was it was really how well they handled the situation. I returned there after work and we had a good laugh about it. Not only did they gave me the full correct order but also realized I like that lemony flavor of Cuba, but they also have a me a really nice dinner to go for me evening. And yes the lemony pork was absolutely delicious. There was no hesitation, no dispute, just all smiles acne appreciation from both of us. So to sum it up it really wasn't the mistake. It was HOW THEY MAKE YOU FEEL and how they take care of you as a customer. a now loyal custom for years to come.
